• Use a spoon or an ice cream scoop (this depends on how large you want the cookies to be) and scoop the dough out and place 2 inches apart on a cookie sheet. Line with parchment to make sure they don't stick to the pan.
• Place them in the oven for 12 to 14 minutes and let them bake! Bake time will depend on the size of the cookie or how your oven is calibrated. They should be a light golden brown. !
• Cool for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet and then transfer them to a wire rack.

Dip in Chocolate

• If you want to dip half of the cookie in chocolate, melt 1 ½ cups of chocolate chips in the microwave until smooth and creamy, approximately 3 to 5 minutes.
• Dip the cookie in the chocolate and cool in the refrigerator.
